I guess I could be considered a collector. I can't remember ever selling a game or a CD. Or even a movie.

Well if your not going to play or watch it, why keep it around when you can get some value out of it?

I've watched all of my movies at least twice, listened to all the CDs so many times I can't count, and play all the games now and then. Driving games with my dad, FPS games with buddies online, and adventure games when I'm bored or have some free time. Oh, and Guitar Hero when drunk. With friends.

HAHAHA, that would leave some fond memories.

"Hey you remember that time you beat Through the fire and the flames on expert drunk?"
"Yea, then you took the guitar and smashed my T.V.?"

It's more like "Hey you remember what we did last night?"
"I... I remember guitars?"

I don't need to convince. I don't know what you're talking about. I would never touch a hooker. STDs. Never. You've got the wrong guy. I probably just look like the guy you're looking for. That was just my natural response to accusations.

Going back to literature for a moment, anyone else read George R. R. Martin's Ice and Fire series? It's the book series behind HBO's Game of Thrones.

It's such a phenominal series. Very intricate and complicated, but so richly detailed and in-depth. And Game of Thrones (show) come back in a little over a month. Can't wait. The series has managed to stay true to the books in every way that matters, and made some changes to elements that were silly in the book. For instance, certain characters who were about 14 in the books are about 18 in the show, which makes much better sense in the context of the series. And... next season also gets CGI direwolves!

And the Hobbit movie in December. I don't think I've ever been this hyped for a movie. One of (if not my very) favorite books book being handled by the same people behind what I consider to be the best trilogy in film, Lord of the Rings.

I have the first book in that series on my nightstand, I just haven't gotten around to even opening it. I have a backlog in books, just as I have with games.

I loved the Hobbit book when I was younger. I'm not sure what I'd think reading it now, it is a more children-oriented book, but I still think the movie will be amazing. If only for the memories.
